Actor-comedian Krushna Abhishek, who now hosts a comedy show on a channel which earlier featured an entertainer by Kapil Sharma, hopes the latter's new show on another channel does well.

"God willing, let Kapil's show get the ratings. I would say that both shows get good ratings. Kapil's show will be a healthy competition, he will also enjoy it because we will give them tough competition, like we are currently giving, and we will also enjoy that he would give us healthy competition.

"What happens because of competition is that both will do good work." Krushna, who is currently hosting "Comedy Nights Live" on Colors, added: "Only we can give competition to Kapil, and only he can give it to us. No one else has been born for it - tell me if such people are there in television... Though I can't say about the future.

"It's a good thing that both of us are giving a tough fight to each other. One on side there is Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Devdas' and on the other hand there is 'Bajirao Mastani', and if those two will clash, people will enjoy it."

Kapil's show 'Comedy Nights With Kapil' on Colors was replaced by the channel with 'Comedy Nights Live' after Kapil had differences with the channel. Kapil is now coming up with 'The Kapil Sharma Show'.
